Introduction
Thanks to its interesting properties, the conventional free radical polymerization is
applied in order to produce many commercial polymers. Among its advantages
are the possibility to polymerize a wide range of monomers[1] (e. g. acrylates,
acrylamides, styrenes and vinyls), the compatibility with many solvents and
functional groups[1] (e. g. NR2, COOH, OH and NCO) and convenient conditions
under which this reaction can be performed.[1] The temperature range extends
from 0 to 150 C in bulk, in solution, in suspension or in emulsion. Although a
radical polymerization requires oxygen free conditions, it can be carried out in
water.[2, 3] However, its structure control is less efficient when compared to ionic
polymerization in terms of molecular weight distribution[1], end-group
functionalities and chain branching[2, 4].
This caveat is related to the reaction mechanism in itself. In consequence to these
difficulties, a polydispersity (I=Mw/Mn) lower than 1.5 can hardly be reached.[5]
Since the 1980s, several techniques were developed in order to alleviate this
drawback. All these enhancements rely on obtaining dormant species in
equilibrium with an active form from propagating chain radicals (Scheme 1).
Insert Scheme 1
Nowadays, five methods using a reversible termination or a reversible chain
transfer as depicted in Scheme 1 have been designed.[6] They have been named

living or controlled free radical polymerization processes. They involve
nitroxide[5, 7], cobalt/porphyrin complexes[8], or copper(I)/bipyridine complexes[9,
10] ((reversible termination, equation (1) in Scheme 1). As an alternative, an
iodine transfer[11-13], a reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer
(RAFT)[14-16] ,, oorr aa macromolecular design via interchange of xanthate
(MADIX)[17] can be applied ((reversible chain transfer, equation (2) in Scheme 1).
Others techniques do exist but they are seldom used or have only been recently
devised.[18-24]
Insert Scheme 2
2,2,6,6-tetramethyl piperidinyl-1-oxy 1 (TEMPO) is one of the most commonly
used compound in a living free radical polymerization process based upon
nitroxides (Scheme 2). Similarly, ditertiobutylnitroxide 2 has recently been
applied (Scheme 2) and its use in radical processes is growing. [25, 26] Two severe
drawbacks of TEMPO namely are a long induction time (around 10 h with styrene
at 120 C)[5] and a working temperature above 120 C, preventing a
polymerization to be carried out in aqueous dispersed systems.[3] However, a
polymerization with TEMPO can be obtained under high pressure in an aqueous
medium. Unfortunately some autopolymerization of styrene cannot be neglected
at such a high temperature, leading to an increase of the polydispersity.[3, 27] In

order to avoid the limitations associated with 1, several groups have synthezised
and tested nitroxides allowing lower temperature conditions.[2, 4, 25, 26, 28-34]
Hereunder we will report the styrene polymerization in bulk at 90 and at 120 C
and in miniemulsion at 90 C in the presence of 2,2,15,15-tetramethyl-1-aza-
4,7,10,13-tetraoxacyclopentadecan-1-oxyl 3 (Scheme 3) and in the presence of its
sodium complex. We will focus on the linear evolution ofMn as a function of the
conversion. Styrene was used as the reference monomer and all data were
compared with TEMPO as the counter-radical.
Experimental part
Materials
Styrene (STY) was purchased from Aldrich and stored at -4 C. The included 4-
tert-butylcatechol inhibitor was removed either by using an inhibitor-remover
packaging (from Aldrich) or by styrene distillation under reduced pressure.
Benzoyl peroxide (BPO), TEMPO, hexadecane were used as purchased from
Aldrich, as well as all the other compounds involved in the synthesis of3, 3Li and
3Na. All solvents were purchased from Biosolve. Dowfax 8390, an anionic
surfactant, was purchased from Dow Chemical Company. Chromatographic
separations were performed on Aldrich Silicagel 60 (230-400 mesh) for column
chromatography.

Gel permeation chromatography (GPC) experiments were achieved in THF
solution (from Biosolve, stabilized with BHT) at 22 C with a flow rate of 1.0
cm3.min-1 by using a WATERS Model 510 pump, a Model 410 refractive index
detector (at 40 C) and a Model 486 UV detector (at 254 nm). 50 l injections
were performed by means of a WATERS Model WISP 712 autoinjector in a low
molecular weight set of columns i.e. a PLgel guard (5 m particles) 50*7.5 mm
precolumn followed by two successive PLgel columns of 50 nm (5 m particles)
and 10 nm (5 m particles). Polystyrene samples from Polymer Laboratories (M =
580 to M = 7.1*106) were the calibration standards. Data acquisition and
processing were performed by means of the WATERS Millennium32 (v3.05)
software. The conversion was measured by gravimetry. The ESR spectra were
recorded at room temperature on a Bruker ESP 300E spectrometer fitted with a X-
band resonator (9.41 GHz), a Bruker ER035M NMR gaussmeter and an HP
8535B microwave frequency counter. The signal was detected at a 100 kHz
magnetic field modulation. The UV spectra were acquired on an HP 8453 UV-
Visible spectrophotometer with an HP 89090A heating unit.
Polymerization
BULK
In 50 ml flasks, styrene, nitroxide and BPO were mixed as described hereunder.
The mixture was thoroughly degassed for 30 minutes by argon bubbling and then
dipped into an oil bath heated at the appropriate temperature. Aliquots were
picked at various time intervals and stored over hydroquinone. They were

characterised by gel permeation chromatography. The conversion was measured
by gravimetry.
Bulk 90: mBPO = 0.256 g, m3 = 0.280 g, mSTY = 20.005 g.
Bulk 120: mBPO = 0.260 g, m3 = 0.281 g, mSTY = 20.015 g.

TEMPO 90: mBPO = 0.658 g, mTEMPO = 0.378 g, mSTY = 50.016 g.
MINIEMULSION
The miniemulsion was prepared as follows: the monomer, the nitroxide, the BPO
and the hexadecane were poured into water and a surfactant. They were mixed by
using a high shear mixer (Ystral X1020) for 5 minutes at room temperature. An
homogenous emulsion was obtained at room temperature by means of a sonifier
(Dr. Hielscher UP 400S) operated for 5 minutes at 50 % duty, on power 5 and on
pulsed mode.
Miniemulsion: mBPO = 0.123 g, m3 = 0.136 g, mSTY = 10.040 g, mhexadecane = 0.505

Synthesis and ESR
The synthesis of3 has already been described elsewhere.[35, 36] It is summarized
in Scheme 3.
Insert Scheme 3
The synthesis of 4 has been carried out according to ref. [37] followed by a
reduction by AlLiH4. The oxidation of 5 was difficult to achieve and several
experiments had to be performed. A 30 % aqueous hydrogen peroxide solution
with some sodium tungstate as a catalyst only gives a yield of 11 % after 40 h. It
reached 26 % after 70 hours. The reaction conditions have been kept constant at
room temperature. Over-oxidation occurred when the reaction involved meta
chloroperbenzoic acid (m-CPBA). Ultimately, a 70 % yield was obtained by
means of a proportion modified Brik procedure[38] and a flash chromatography
with dichloromethane/ethanol 950/50 V/V as eluent. The Brik procedure is a
biphasic in situ generation of dimethyldioxirane by oxone (KHSO5) over acetone.
The alkoxyamine of styrene has not been successfully obtained using the Miuras
procedure.[39]
The metal complex synthesis has been carried out according to ref. [35] by using
MBPh4 (M = Li+, Na
+, K
+). In every case, a good yield has been reached with the
exception of the potassium complex. The ESR experiments are summarized in
Table 1. It gives the respective hyperfine coupling constants and the g-factors for
3, 3Li and 3Na in several solvents.

Insert Table 1
All the spectra have been simulated with an EPR software from Duling et al.[40,
41] It was impossible for 3 to find a correlation between theE(T)Nof the solvent
and the aN or the g-factor. The spectra of3Li and 3Na (Figure 1) show triplets of
quadruplets with a aN 15.8 G and aMetal 2.5 G. Our goal is to obtain the highest
value for aN ; it implies that the B mesomeric form (Scheme 4) is favoured.
Considering that the lithium and sodium salts are innocuous, their ecological
impact is low. The oversized potassium does not enter into the crown ; therefore
only the spectrum of3 could be observed (Figure 1).
Insert Figure 1
Insert Scheme 4
The UV spectra of 3 in styrene have been recorded for several concentrations. 3
shows two absorption peaks, viz. at 313 nm ( = 46 mol-1
.dm3.cm
-1) and at 417
nm ( = 4 mol-1
.dm3.cm
-1).

Three polymerization processes for 3 have been studied : in bulk at 90 C (Bulk
90 in Figure 2-4 and Table 2), in bulk at 120 C (Bulk 120) and in miniemulsion
at 90 C (Miniemulsion). The polymerization of3Na was only performed in bulk
at 90 C (Bulk Na). After removing the inhibitor from the monomer by a
distillation, the BPO initiator was added with an initial concentration around 45
mM. In all the experiments, a Nitroxide to Initiator ratio of 1.1 was used. Table 2
summarizes our results. They are compared to data obtained by Georges et al.[5]
for TEMPO at 120 C (TEMPO 120) and to our experiments for TEMPO at 90 C
(TEMPO 90).
Insert Table 2
Insert Figure 2
Figure 2 shows the evolution of the conversion versus time. Disregarding the
reaction conditions, the rate of3 is faster than TEMPO at 120 C. The reaction
rate follows the order Bulk 120 > Miniemulsion > Bulk 90. In the case of TEMPO
at 120 C, an inhibition time of 10 hours was observed before normal
polymerization occurred. The conversion at 90 C with the same nitroxide was
only 4 % after 51 hours

The variation ofMn versus Conversion (Figure 3) is not entirely linear ; the
presence of thermal radicals certainly accounts for this curvature. The
experimental Mn reproduced in Table 2 are significantly higher than the
theoretical values showing that the number of chains is lower than what is
expected.
Insert Figure 3
The polymerization rate depends on the instantaneous concentration of BPO and
should slowly decrease over time. When analyzing the ln([M]0/[M]) versus Time
plot (Figure 4), the linear variation for neat styrene in bulk cannot be reproduced
here ; thermally generated radicals control the polymerization rate. A
ln([M]0/[M]) variation yields a straight line when the radical concentration stays
equal throughout the reaction. It seems not to be the case here by considering that
the half-time of the BPO initiator (approximately 1.5 hour) is short as compared
to the reaction time.
Insert Figure 4
However, the increasing molecular weights and the relatively low polydispersities
suggest that this process is a living polymerization.
Bulk 120

At this temperature, the BPO decomposition is swift. As expected, a faster
polymerization rate is observed at the beginning of the reaction (Figure 2). Later
on, it is probably controlled by thermal initiation or will depend on the
equilibrium constant[42] ; this explains why the straight line does not pass through
zero in the ln([M]0/[M]) versus Time graphic (Figure 4).
In this case, experimentally measured Mn (Mn Exp.) is lower than simulatedMn
(Mn calc.) at the end of the reaction (Table 2). At lower conversions, the nitroxide
deactivation causes a higher molecular weight than what is theoretically expected.
However, at the end, this effect is compensated by a thermal initiation and a chain
transfer to the monomer ; therefore lower molecular weights are obtained. This
behaviour also accounts for the very high polydispersity.
Miniemulsion
When the miniemulsion results are compared to Bulk 90, a higher polymerization
rate, higher molecular weights and higher polydispersities are observed. This
increased rate may be the result of a compartmentalisation in the emulsion
polymerization, leading to a less bimolecular termination. The higher molecular
weights and polydispersities suggest more nitroxides side reactions or a nitroxides
partitioning to the aqueous phase. Furthermore the latter may also explain the
higher polymerization rate due to a higher fraction of propagating chains inside
the particles.

The general behaviour of3Na is close to TEMPO. When using 3Na as the counter
radical, the reaction has an inhibition period of 7.5 hours and a slower rate than 3.
A 75% conversion is the maximum yield reached by 3Na.
Conclusion
By analyzing Figure 3, it can be concluded that there is some control with 3 and
3Na because Mn linearly increases with conversion and because the
polydispersities are not very high. Ultimately, the results should be better if more
ideal experimental conditions were met, as for instance with another initiator or a
different initiator/nitroxide ratio. These enhancements are still under evaluation in
our laboratory.
